Miami\u2019s Unreal-Systems supplies a stadium-sized rig delivering massive-yet-tight sub energy<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

SYDNEY, Australia \u2013 September 2025 \u2013<\/strong> After a temporary break from a world tour that has straddled three continents, Grammy Award-winning EDM trio R\u00fcf\u00fcs Du Sol will resume their global trek with a run of November shows in their native Australia and elsewhere. The journey, in support of the group\u2019s most recent album, Inhale\/Exhale<\/em>, and its subsequent remix iterations, has included some of R\u00fcf\u00fcs Du Sol\u2019s biggest headline shows yet, including California\u2019s Rose Bowl Stadium, Guadalajara\u2019s Estadio Tres de Marzo, New Jersey\u2019s Red Bull Arena, and Texas\u2019 Q2 Stadium. Everywhere that Tyrone Lindqvist (vocals, guitar, keyboards), Jon George (keyboards), and James Hunt (drums) have traveled, crisp high-energy sound with robust low-frequency energy has followed, thanks to a huge L-Acoustics K Series system provided by Miami\u2019s Unreal-Systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The size and scale of the loudspeaker setup varies according to the venue. The tour\u2019s shed-level design has 40 K1<\/a>, 16 K2<\/a>, a dozen A10<\/a>, and 40 KS28<\/a> subs, all powered by 27 LA12X<\/a> amplified controllers, while the stadium-sized system comprises 48 K1, 16 K2, six Kara II<\/a>, 14 A10, four L2<\/a>, five L2D<\/a>, and 64 KS28 plus 16 K1-SB<\/a>, driven by 56 LA12X and nine LA7.16<\/a>. The Rose Bowl system \u2013 considered the \u201cstatement show\u201d of the recent North American tour leg \u2013 brought together 64 K1, 16 K2, six Kara II, 14 A10, six L2, seven L2D, and a massive bass combination of 76 KS28 and 40 K1-SB subs, powered by 72 LA12X and 17 LA7.16<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The entire system runs on a Milan-AVB signal path with a third layer of AES redundancy hitting each amplified controller. Fallback setup and management is particularly efficient with Milan Manager to handle the AVB network configurations. Front-end input is also managed over AVB, with analog backup, feeding main and backup L-Acoustics P1<\/a> processors at FOH.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All About That Bass<\/strong>
The LFE proved most challenging aspect of the system design, according to Systems Engineer Johnny Keirle, system designer and engineer for Adele, Benson Boone, and the Super Bowl, as well as RDS, as the trio is known to fans. \u201cThe biggest challenge is delivering the low-frequency impact and coverage required for live EDM,\u201d he explains. \u201cUnlike pop and rock shows, where low end is typically transient-based, RDS has sustained sub content alongside percussive transients, so we lean more on the ground subs than I usually would.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This required experimentation to balance coverage and impact. \u201cSheds present challenges with variable real estate for ground subs, steep seating, and concrete construction, while stadium shows demand much larger coverage across all axis with potential time-arrival variations, and multiple source interactions,\u201d he describes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ground-based KS28 subs are deployed in cardioid configurations wherever possible, says Keirle, while flown cardioid KS28 are deployed in end-fire configurations with the K1 main and side hangs. For the Rose Bowl system, the audio crew deployed an additional dozen K1-SB in an end-fire configuration behind the main hangs, and the increased ground sub lineup of 36 KS28 was deployed in 18 positions of subwoofer pairs running in cardioid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The L-Acoustics K Series systems are also able to help manage LFE challenges. K1 allows engineers to manipulate coverage characteristics in lower-frequency ranges, offering better control over flown LF propagation, as well as over interaction between the flown LF sources and ground LF sources. Extending the line source by adding K1-SB above the K1 main hangs further improves low-frequency control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe K Series flexibility across diverse venue types and sizes makes it ideal for a tour spanning intimate sheds to massive stadiums. The adaptability of the system, alongside the precision of Soundvision modeling, allows confident deployment across vastly different acoustic environments, knowing the system will perform as predicted regardless of scale or venue characteristics.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFOH Engineer Cam Trewin\u2019s output is exceptionally controlled and consistent,\u201d says Systems Engineer Johnny Keirle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

L Series is a Switch Hitter<\/strong>
The entire system acts as a sonic toolbox of sorts, allowing Keirle to choose components on site to best suit each environment, with the L Series acting as the go-to elements for many of the fill deployments. For instance, he says, the stadium shows use up to seven positions of L Series: two hangs of L2\/L2D rear arrays, four positions of L2\/L2D delays, and a standalone center L2D hang.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe cardioid polar pattern of the L2 is particularly valuable in delays, matched with cardioid-configured KS28 subs, and the voicing matches well with the K Series main system,\u201d he says. \u201cFor the Rose Bowl, where we were limited with tower capacity, three L2 were flown per, with four KS28 on the ground, deployed as two cardioid stacks in an end-fire configuration. We were fortunate to be traveling with the full stadium system for the whole American run \u2013 we could pick and choose different PA elements for each venue as suited best.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In fact, all of the L-Acoustics products perform critical roles. \u201cSome venues present particularly challenging and resource-demanding conditions,\u201d he says, describing extremely harsh environments for HF propagation. \u201cAgain, I rely on the tools in Soundvision, with some custom calculators to know how sources will perform, even in challenging atmospheric environments,\u201d he says, noting that many stadium shows are very exposed to wind. \u201cThe density and coherence of the K1 HF wavefront has been essential to maintain stable coverage and SPL at higher frequencies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the tour carries on in Oceania, the L-Acoustics loudspeakers will continue to prove their value. They also underscore the fact that, despite its reputation as a bass-heavy format, EDM has plenty of nuance that a system like this can reveal. \u201cThere is a huge amount of detail in the RDS live mix,\u201d says Keirle. \u201cFOH Engineer Cam Trewin\u2019s output is exceptionally controlled and consistent, meaning I can confidently and precisely dimension the entire system for linear reproduction at high SPL. Smaller or less powerful formats wouldn\u2019t deliver, and the layers of detail in the mix would get lost. This is a system that can, literally, do anything we ask of it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
